RIVIERA RENDEZVOUS by Gemma Juliana

Amalie Pallas flees when she runs into danger on the cruise ship she
calls home, but soon realizes she can’t afford to buy an airline ticket home
from Italy.

Xandros
Xenakis is more than the shipping agent everybody thinks he is—he owns the
cruise ship and many more. He’s had his sights on Amalie for months, so when
she suddenly becomes a stranded damsel in distress, he is quick to offer her a
solution.

Can Amalie
be his pretend fiancée without losing her heart to him? After all, their
contract is only for a weekend. What could possibly go wrong at a family event
on the French Riviera?

EXCERPT:

“Cara mia, let us enjoy our weekend together.”

“Where, exactly, are we going?”

Xandros signaled for the check.
“We’re driving to the French Riviera. The family villa is in Èze, on the Côte
d’Azur. The wedding takes place in a chapel there, and the reception is on our
family yacht in Monaco.”

Within minutes they were out
the door and in his car, speeding along a hillside road.

“Oh no, Xandros,” Amalie put
her hands on her cheeks. “I have nothing to wear to such an event. You saw the
size of my bag. I left most of my clothes on the ship.”

“I’ve got it covered. We’ll
stop at a boutique on our way. They’ll have everything you need.” His Aston
Martin took the hilly curves as the speckled light filtered in and out of the
shade trees overhanging the road. He pulled through a wrought iron gate and
stopped before a beautiful Roman-styled mansion. “Please wait here while I
collect my luggage. It’s all packed so I’ll only be a moment.”

He climbed the marble steps
flanked by large ancient terracotta flowering pots and disappeared through the
front door. Roses sprawled from the vases in wild abandon. She glanced in awe
around the manicured grounds. The earth felt very ancient here.
